Faculty Spotlight: Debbie Black, Education
Read about Debbie Black’s sabbatical journey on her website here: https://sites.google.com/site/goodearthbikejourney/home
“Debbie’s sabbatical from Keene State College includes chronicling the development of a soil study for young students. Drawing from the work of Kerry Ruef (1992) and the Private Eye Project ( http://www.the-private-eye.com/index.html ) one square foot of soil will be studied from disparate regions across the country. Jeweler’s loupes and magnifying glasses will be used to change scale. Writing, thinking by analogy, and drawing will be used to develop strong observation skills that lead to theorizing about new discoveries. Testing these theories will be developed in collaboration with readers for this project using different technologies for communicating findings. This approach to a soil study will be piloted in a kindergarten classroom, a 5th grade classroom and in a Keene State College Elementary Methods course.”
This video is a Faculty Spotlight on Debbie Black, Professor of Education at Keene State College in Keene, New Hampshire in which she describes her experiences on sabbatical, the development of an environmental science project for elementary school students, and the integration of technology into college curricula including blogging, video production, photography, and Skype.
